We are constantly discovering previously unknown faults.

I was living in Calif in the early ‘70’s when it was discovered that the newly ocnstructed Diablo nuclear plant was built over a unknown fault. Oops.

Even Arkansas just had a large swarm that ended in a pretty good quake for them.

And then there's the volcanoes. Sure hope that caldera in Yellowstone goes back asleep - or it won't matter WHERE on earth we live - game over.

If Yellowstone goes, a nuclear plant or two will be the least of our worries.
